Groundbreaking Reverb Emulation Technology

The Pure Plate Reverb plug-in was engineered by the modeling experts at Universal Audio to be a no-compromise emulation of this classic effect. By capturing all of the sonic and mechanical nuances of the steel plate, transducers, and dampers, the Pure Plate Reverb plug-in gives vocals, guitars, strings, and synths a lush, satisfying space that gently flatters any source.

Whether you’re tracking in realtime using an Apollo interface, or mixing in your DAW, Pure Plate Reverb’s intuitive controls deliver musical results for beginners and pros alike. The ultra-effective Baxandall-type Bass and Treble controls sculpt the timbre of the reverb, while the Low Cut Hz input filters and Pre Delay further season the reverb’s character. Finally, the Balance control lets you place your “space” perfectly in the stereo spectrum. No matter the source, Pure Plate Reverb gives you the rich analog dimension and depth of an old-school plate reverb system.

      I love this especially in console for my Hi-Z guitar input. Allows me to easily practice guitar with a pleasing tone without even opening my DAW!

      Plate reverb enthusiast here

      For me, my best friend as a guitarist is a quality plate reverb. I love plate because, it gives me all of the reverb I need while Not hindering the attack.
      UAD has hit this one out of the park!
      Extremely lush without getting lost.
      There are performance tests that I do like stabs etc. This past all of them with flying colors!

      Nice reverb

      Very simple with good sound.
      Great for lo-fi synths from the 70s and 80s.
      Good for guitar with extra M/S correction on fx send

      Great flexibility and good sounding reverb

      Reverb easy to tailor to fit the track or bus depending on the source. Great flexibility of intervention due to the parameters. Another bullseye from UA!

      Simple UI, but sounds very good

      Excellent plate reverb emulation. Does not have that unpleasent metallic "clang" many others do. This is very smooth. UI is very intuitive. My choice of plate reverbs at the moment.
